Vatican City (AFP) - The Vatican's first accord with the Palestinians -- an agreement that Israel has attacked as counter-productive to the Middle East peace process -- has come into force, the Holy See announced Saturday.
The accord was signed in June, just over two years after the Roman Catholic Church recognised the Palestinian territories as a sovereign state in February 2013.
The accord covers the operation of the Church in areas of the Holy Land under Palestinian control but its significance has been seen in broader terms as a symbol of growing international backing for a Palestinian state.
"With reference to the Comprehensive Agreement between the Holy See and the State of Palestine, signed on 26 June 2015, the Holy See and the State of Palestine have notified each other that the procedural requirements for its entry into force have been fulfilled," a Vatican statement said.
"The agreement... regards essential aspects of the life and activity of the Church in Palestine, while at the same time reaffirming the support for a negotiated and peaceful solution to the conflict in the region."

The danger, Israel, is not that it's counter-productive to peace, but that it's leading to the false peace.
But the Scriptures must be fulfilled and so shall they be.
Let him with ears to hear, hear.
Matthew 16 King James Version (KJV)
16 The Pharisees also with the Sadducees came, and tempting desired him that he would shew them a sign from heaven.
2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, It will be fair weather: for the sky is red.
3 And in the morning, It will be foul weather to day: for the sky is red and lowering. O ye hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not discern the signs of the times?
Is the Pope Catholic?
Just to be pedantic, a false peace is by definition counterproductive to peace.
Here followers of Satan, more power to you...
The Catholic church has a big problem.
This Pope is sadly lacking.
Oh yes, definitely.
We know what false “peace” the man of sin shall bring. The stage keeps on building. The world shall rejoice at the “peace” and laugh heartily at the Bible Prophecy nuts.
Hope they enjoy those first 1,260 days.
So be it......
To be in effect until the Palestinians kill all the Christians in the area.
Um, I think we now know the answer to that.
an accord signed directly with Satan’s worldly agents (PLO- Abbas and company)
Dear Pope Francis,
we cry to sleep at night that you may find theLord God and His true peace in your life.
Also, please read your Bible...
start with James 3:1, pleaase.
Thank you.
Beating up on Jews and Israel for millennia.
Does the vatican recognize Jerusalem as Israel’s capitol or does it embrace the myth its a part of palestine tho its never been palestine’s capitol....
The Pope is a devil
Just watch, it will be shared among the three faiths they recognize in CC841. One of which is islam.
I’m sure the “peace” will seem to work for a little while. And then.....
[[To be in effect until the Palestinians kill all the Christians in the area.]]
They have already chased out or killed most of them .
I don’t believe any country, certainly no major one, recognizes Jerusalem as Israel’s capital. The Vatican would be the last to recognize it.
In league with the devil.
The Vatican blatantly sides with evil .
The land of Israel does not belong to these arabs.
The fake palestinians are liars , thieves , and murderers .
They want to side with evil and evil will come upon them.
Look at what is happening to all of Europe .
As Europe sides with these fake palestinians that teach their children to murder Jews they are being swamped by islamics who will murder their children in the name of a fake god that denies Jesus.
The interesting thing is to watch Catholics defend their church all the while attacking. the pope, claiming that the church has survived bad popes before.
The problem they have, however is that it’s not just a renegade pope.
Their college of cardinals ELECTED the man.
The problems within the Catholic church go far deeper that one man. It goes to the whole body which considered and appointed him.
They are all married to the world and think they are smarter than what is written in the bible.
Yeah they elected him because they think like him.
